All other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art based on the embodiments of this utility model without creative effort are within the scope of protection of this utility model.

[0022] In the description of this utility model, it should be understood that the terms "center", "longitudinal", "lateral", "length", "width", "thickness", "upper", "lower", "front", "rear", "left", "right", "vertical", "horizontal", "top", "bottom", "inner", "outer", "clockwise", "counterclockwise", etc., indicating the orientation or positional relationship are based on the orientation or positional relationship shown in the accompanying drawings, and are only for the convenience of describing this utility model and simplifying the description, and are not intended to indicate or imply that the device or component referred to must have a specific orientation, or be constructed and operated in a specific orientation, and therefore should not be construed as a limitation of this utility model.

[0023] Furthermore, the terms "first" and "second" are used for descriptive purposes only and should not be construed as indicating or implying relative importance or implicitly specifying the number of technical features indicated. Thus, a feature defined as "first" or "second" may explicitly or implicitly include one or more of that feature. In the description of this utility model, "a plurality of" means two or more, unless otherwise explicitly specified.

[0024] In this utility model, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "installation," "connection," "joining," and "fixing," etc., should be interpreted broadly. For example, they can refer to a fixed connection, a detachable connection, or an integral part; they can refer to a mechanical connection or an electrical connection; they can refer to a direct connection or an indirect connection through an intermediate medium; they can refer to the internal communication of two components or the interaction between two components. Those skilled in the art can understand the specific meaning of the above terms in this utility model according to the specific circumstances.

[0025] In this invention, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, "above" or "below" the second feature can include direct contact between the first and second features, or contact between the first and second features through another feature between them. Furthermore, "above," "over," and "on top" of the second feature includes the first feature directly above or diagonally above the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a higher horizontal level than the second feature. "Below," "below," and "under" the second feature includes the first feature directly below or diagonally below the second feature, or simply indicates that the first feature is at a lower horizontal level than the second feature.

[0026] Referring to the accompanying drawings, a water outlet device for easy filter replacement includes a water outlet body 100. The water outlet body includes a lower water outlet panel 10 and an upper shell 20 that can be separated from it. A filter element assembly 30 is disposed inside the water outlet body. The filter element assembly can be connected to the water outlet panel. After the upper shell is separated from the water outlet body, the filter element assembly can be removed from the water outlet body. The filter element assembly can be installed and removed by separating the upper shell from the outer shell. The device also includes a support arm 40. The water outlet body can be rotated up and down relative to the support arm to rotate the upper shell downwards, reducing its height. In use, the water outlet panel is at the bottom and the upper shell is at the top. When the filter element assembly needs to be replaced, the water outlet body is rotated relative to the support arm to reverse the arrangement, so that the water outlet panel is at the top and the upper shell is at the bottom, thereby reducing the height at which the upper shell can be removed. This makes it convenient for the user to remove and replace the filter element assembly. Furthermore, the relative rotation of the water outlet body can change the water outlet angle during normal use to adapt to different shower requirements.

[0027] Preferably, the water outlet body further includes an inner body 50 and an outer shell 60 disposed inside and outside. The inner body can be fixed inside the outer shell, that is, the two can move or rotate synchronously. The filter element assembly can be connected with the inner body. The inner body can also be connected with the water outlet panel. The inner body can be positioned between the filter element assembly and the water outlet panel. Water can enter the inner body and flow to the filter element assembly, and then flow out from the water outlet panel.

[0028] Furthermore, a protruding connecting piece 51 is provided on the outer periphery of the upper end of the inner body, and an L-shaped slot 21 is provided on the inner peripheral wall of the upper shell. The connecting piece can be connected with the slot to connect the upper shell and the inner body together. After inserting the slot with one end aligned with the connecting piece, the upper shell is rotated so that the connecting piece is supported by the other end of the slot. This prevents the upper shell from being directly pulled out of the water outlet body. A barb 11 is provided on the upper surface of the water outlet panel, and a stepped surface 52 is provided on the outer periphery of the lower end of the inner body. The barb can be connected with the stepped surface. The water outlet panel is connected to the inner body by locking bolts 53. Corresponding sealing elements 70 are provided in the specific water flow to prevent water leakage from the water outlet body. For details, please refer to the attached drawings in the instruction manual. The other existing methods are basically the same and will not be described in detail here.

[0029] Furthermore, a connecting hole 53 is provided on one side of the inner body, and a water inlet connector 41 that can be inserted into the connecting hole is provided at one end of the support arm. A water inlet channel 110 is formed between the inner circumference of the upper shell and the outer circumference of the filter element assembly. The water inlet channel can communicate with the connecting hole and the support arm, and the water outlet end of the water inlet channel can be connected to the water inlet end of the filter element assembly. A clamp 61 is provided inside the outer shell. The clamp can be detachably connected to the outer shell by means of screws. An annular groove 42 is provided on the outer circumference of the water inlet connector. The clamp can be inserted into the annular groove to rotatably connect the water outlet body and the support arm together. This prevents the water outlet body from separating from the support arm, while also ensuring that the two can rotate relative to each other.

[0030] Preferably, the support arm is arc-shaped, and the upper shell can be placed between the two ends of the support arm. Referring to the attached drawings, the support arm is a component with an arc of 90°, and the water outlet body can rotate freely within the arc of the support arm without being disturbed.

[0031] Furthermore, it also includes a curved arm 80 that can be connected to the wall, the curved arm being connected to the upper end of the support arm, the lower end of the support arm being provided with a water inlet connector, and the curved arm being connected to the support arm to allow water to flow to the water inlet channel.

[0032] More specifically, this utility model includes a support arm, a filter element assembly, and a shower head (water outlet body). A water inlet connector, connected to the support arm at a fixed point such as the curved arm, forms a rotating shaft and connects to the filter element assembly. The detachable filter element assembly is fixed via a detachable connection on the upper shell. Raw water flows from the support arm to the water inlet channel, is filtered by the filter element assembly, and then flows to the shower head. The shower head can rotate around the support arm and can be suspended arbitrarily between its lowest and highest points, allowing for free adjustment of the filter element assembly's height. Users can lower the height of the filter element assembly by rotating the shower head, facilitating its removal and replacement.

[0033] The foregoing description illustrates and describes preferred embodiments of the present invention. As previously stated, it should be understood that the present invention is not limited to the forms disclosed herein and should not be construed as excluding other embodiments. It can be used in various other combinations, modifications, and environments, and can be altered within the scope of the inventive concept described herein through the foregoing teachings or related technical or knowledge.
